What does Musk Pure smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Voters spread the seasons almost evenly, with spring slightly ahead. Daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often. Most voters read it as feminine, though some call it masculine.

The scent is fresh and floral: ylang-ylang, jasmine and lily of the valley carry the flowers, while bergamot and pepper add brightness and a light spice. Musk, orris root and beeswax keep it powdery and creamy, and benzoin and tonka bean add sweetness. Animal and synthetic tones stay in the background. Al Haramain Royal Musk and Jōvan Musk for Women have a close profile.
